Nominations Open for 2025 Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan Champion Award

Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan (FFC SK) is now accepting nominations for the 2025 Champion Award—an annual recognition of individuals who go above and beyond in building public trust in food and farming across the province.

The Champion Award celebrates a member of the agricultural community who demonstrates outstanding advocacy and commitment to engaging with consumers, helping bridge the gap between the farm and the fork. This recognition is open to farmers, researchers, industry professionals, and anyone who plays a key role in positively representing modern agriculture.

The swine industry has seen incredible leaders emerge as advocates over the years—those who share the story of pork production, explain the care and commitment behind the work, and drive transparency around animal agriculture. If someone in your network is making a difference, now’s the time to nominate them.

Nominations are due by October 1, 2024, and the award will be presented at the 2025 Canadian Centre for Food Integrity Public Trust Summit.

Let’s continue celebrating those who work tirelessly to build trust in Canadian agriculture—one conversation at a time.

In this episode:

• Pasture checks and cow behavior

• Signs a calf is getting close

• Where cows like to hide newborns

• The first official hunt of the season
